Overall Satisfaction with MindTap

The arts department uses MindTap to teach art history to college students. The college teaches multiple courses using MindTap educational materials. The benefit of all faculty in the department teaching with MindTap, is that it unified the core curriculum being taught between course sections. It has also been helpful to assist adjunct staff in preparation for teaching this course, since the college can give them a base template of information to build out the course.
  • Organized clear presentation.
  • Accessibility issues are well considered.
  • Offers multiple activities to reinforce the learning.
  • Syncs with Blackboard gradebook.
  • They took away some of the variety of assignments and I wish they would add them back.
  • Course settings could be more streamlined. Sometimes it’s tedious to make simple changes to the course.
  • MindTap will not work unless students turn off pop up blockers, and this is a challenge that blocks an easy start with the software. If this could be worked out, it would give students a better experience at setup.
  • MindTap was major upgrade from the older Coursemate version.
  • It gives all our instructors a comprehensive set of materials that aligns with the book well.
  • MindTap has unified the curriculum being taught for the course.
MindTap is the only learning software I currently use, but in the past I have used Pearson and McGraw Hill learning content. All of these companies are progresses at a similar rate and making great improvements to their educational materials. MindTap, in my opinion has the best customer service support and representatives in the business. Our rep. has been very responsive.

MindTap is great to unify curriculum among multiple faculty. It makes the development and set up of the course easier. The overall organization of learning content is easy for students to comprehend and follow throughout the semester. Students like the learning reinforcement tools, audio reader, added videos, glossary of terms, Google Earth links etc.
